Two men sit inside a canvas army tent, the kind that housed soldiers in camps during the Civil War, which gives the scene an unusually intimate, domestic quality for a wartime image. Camp life was largely defined by waiting: between marches and battles, soldiers spent long hours in tents like this one, writing letters, cleaning equipment, playing cards and talking. Photographers, many working with heavy wet-plate equipment, often followed armies into camps to record such moments, so pictures like this one help show the routine of the war away from the battlefield.
